Bitcoin Traders Eye Fed: CME FedWatch Signals 89.6% Odds of a December 25-Basis-Point Rate Cut
COINOTAG News, December 10, cites CME’s FedWatch data showing the probability of a 25 basis point cut to the Fed funds rate in December at roughly 89.6%, with a remaining 10.4% odds of keeping rates unchanged.
